Isaac Turns 4

Today was Isaac’s fourth birthday. Daddy took the day off of work and we spent the entire day celebrating Isaac.

He got a couple of presents first thing this morning. He LOVES superheroes so he got a bunch of superhero stuff today. He got the poster (in the background on the couch) for his bedroom and Lucas gave him so new superhero shirts.

Since today was all about him, Isaac got to choose everyone’s shirt for the day. Even snow white (aka – Lois Lane) got dressed up!

I told him on Monday that he should be thinking about what he wanted to do for his birthday, so he’s been thinking all week. First stop today was the mall to play on the ice cream truck. (I had no idea until this week that he liked this so much!)

After play time and lunch at McDonald’s at the mall, we headed to the NC Museum of  Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh. The new section is really nice and Isaac enjoyed all of the new exhibits. According to Lucas, in this picture Isaac is posing with a “Buppy”.

A rare picture of me and my two favorite boys!

The boys favorite part of the museum is the creepy snakes. I have a good zoom on my camera so I got these couple of pictures from a distance. Most of you know my extreme fear of snakes, and having my boys this close, even with glass there, made my heart pound and the room spin!

When we got home this afternoon, my little superman fan got his big gift. Isaac loves to dress up like Clark Kent, run in his room, change his clothes and come out as Superman to save the day. Until today his Clark Kent outfit was a button up shirt. We thought it would be fun to get him the real deal. It turns out Goodwill is a great place to find dress up clothes! Isn’t he the cutest Clark Kent you’ve ever seen?

He chose the restaurant for dinner, his current favorite…Olive Garden. He loves to eat the gnocchi soup and bread sticks. When we returned from dinner Aunt RaRa and Aunt Cindy brought him some cupcakes.

Isaac enjoyed his, but probably not nearly as much as his little brother enjoyed his!

It was a great day of celebration. We all had such a fun time and tonight we’re all exhausted!! And there is still a whole weekend of celebration ahead of us!

I cannot believe that 4 years have passed since the first time I got to hold my sweet little miracle in my arms. Today is not only his birthday, but it’s a day that changed me forever. God gave me such a wonderful gift when he made me this little boy’s Mommy. I am truly blessed.
